Speed up the hot to cold blade conversion process - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

In this webinar, hear how Siemens Energy use Simcenter to perform hot to cold conversion in a single analysis step.

Learn more on their validation methods and confidence in the results.Efficient blade shapes are key to designing efficient turbines. Compressor blade geometry is first defined for the operating, hot shape. This must be reverse engineered to the cold blade shape before manufacturing, which often requires an iterative finite element approach. In this webinar, hear how Siemens Energy use Simcenter to perform hot to cold conversion in a single analysis step. This approach is up to five times quicker than a standard iterative method, with the same level of accuracy.

 

 

 

- How Siemens Energy perform hot to cold deformation analysis in a single step

- Why a close-coupled connection between CAD and simulation data speeds up deformation analysis and increases productivity

- Validation of stress and model analysis results against other solvers

 

 

One of the key design criteria for engine blades is that they are able to perform a certain number of design cycles without failing due to stress fatigue. In this webinar hear how Siemens Energy use Simcenter solutions to identify the high stress regions and engine loads. They also share results from validation studies for their mechanical stress model.
